According to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, the Dutch Grand Prix will "definitely" not be held in May, with the race at Zandvoort initially scheduled to be held on the 3rd of May.

Although conflicting reports have come from the FIA and Formula 1's camp, it looks like the sport will be put on hold until the end of May at the earliest because of the coronavirus pandemic. The Chinese Grand Prix was the first one to be postponed, with the Australian, Bahrain and Vietnam Grands Prix all getting cancelled too last Friday.

While an official announcement is yet to be made, De Telegraaf report the postponement will be announced in the coming week.
